When i bought this game (exceeding the recommended system requirements) i thought this game would run at a nice 60fps making some graphical sacrifices here and there. Oh boy was I wrong. Either I'm cpu-limited (it always drops to low 40s in some parts which would make these recommended requirements a joke) or its badly optimized. I dunno for sure, but I've since uninstalled it from my steam list.
